Another Anime Con 2007 AMV Contest Finalists/Winners

dokool · Post by **dokool** » Sun Oct 14, 2007 12:12 pm

So, I'm going to try to get this all down before my flight starts boarding. I'll work on links to the videos after I get back to Tokyo.

The contest was received INCREDIBLY well and I heard nothing but good reactions to all of the videos from both AAC staff and attendees. Main Events was pretty full on Friday night and Video 1 was maybe 50-75% full on Saturday morning. There were some technical difficulties with the DVD on Friday night, but those were resolved (by burning a new disc - swear to Cthulhu everything worked fine during tech runthroughs). Praise be to BasharoftheAges for assisting me in running this contest.

The winners will receive their trophies in the mail sometime in the next couple weeks and I'll be emailing everyone to verify their addresses once I get back home.

Category winners are in bold, and the Audience Choice award is in bold and italic.

More local editors this year, awesomeness! Thank you to everyone who submitted and congratulations again to the winners. I look forward to seeing your new videos next year!

Request:
If you find them, could you make an entry for the video contest calender on this site please? It would be nice. Or is maybe someone of us allowed to make an entry?

Hehe, thank you. I've always loved them, and I made that video for a good friend who's a giant Beatles fan too.

I hope to see you again at AB this year!

It's near the back of a very long List Of Things To Do - right after catching up on sleep, finding what school assignments I missed, and making sure the trophies get shipped out. Expect it to go up closer to the end of the week.

Every category except comedy was really close for at least 2 videos each time. Your stuff got a decent number of votes.
